Hi, I was a chronic school cutter. My mom didn't care so they told my Gramma. She was pretty mad! And said some pretty hard things: "All you have to do in your life is show up a school!" (she was a major guilt tripper.") It was kind of a relief when I got caught. I was skipping so muc...

:D Thanks, Missbibbledoo. You sure are nice to have around the forum. Probably not the best time to listen to Pink Floyd's "The Wall" in surround sound (really loud), watching a lava lamp. How retro can a person get? But it's what I feel like. "If you want to find out what's behind th...

Thanks guys. I have started to drink (had two) since I posted this and now I'm willing to stop for the night. Just knowing there are people out there in the world who care, who would go to some effort to help, who know the path I walk, what more could I ask for in support? 8) You three have just sav...

Society tends to put more pressure on a teen with an eating disorder than anything else. So your goal might be how to convince your children why and how to ignore that message of the perfect body constantly bombarding them through billboards, commercials, popular stars, magazines, etc... I would sta...

Come on, anyone, throw me a bone!

Can someone give me ten reasons why I should NOT drink right now? I haven't had even a sip of alcohol this week. Right now I'm having a lot of trouble talking myself out of it. I'll wait to see if anyone has any suggestions of reasons. But I don't know for how long. I'm this >.< close to folding. :o...

Hi Greengoddess, I'm sorry you're struggling so much at this time. :( It sounds like you're dealing with a debilitating spell of major depression. It may be written in your genes, seeing as your mother obviously has some mental health issues. About your gf, I had a similar experience. My partner of ...

Hi Imomo66, Is it normal? No, definitely not. Is it common? Yes, unfortunately. Is it something to be concerned about? Yes! Every behavior has a purpose, meets a need, is a comfort in some way. You've developed a "skill" to manage something else in your world that seems unmanagable. Maybe ...

Hi Psuedosapiens, Firstly, welcome to the forum! :D Do you know what initially drove you into anorexia? Rather than fight your weight concerns directly, try and figure out what happened. A trauma? Bullied? Depression? How you were raised? I have an ED, also. It was an important step for me to look c...

You need to get out of your own head for a while. I see a lot of me in you. And one thing that I do well and shouldn't is ruminate on the past, how miserable it was, and then look ahead with bleak despair towards the future. Makes the moment pretty damn intolerable. GIve yourself a purpose. Sign up ...

At night I can't ever sleep, I have thoughts that like, won't stop, of demons, like no matter what I think of, a girl I like, happy thoughts, they turn straight to like scary sh**. Kinda difficult to sleep when your like that. And when I turn off the lights any single sound bothers me, and ill pray...

Aw, hugs (((Shyandsad))) My heart goes out to you. You have such profound depression. :( I want to say firstly, don't try an overdose. Even when you think you have enough or the right combo there's no guarantee. One thing that IS for sure is you may do severe organ damage and have to live on dialysi...

Hi there Candid, I'm not qualified to say this, but I'm saying NO anyway. You need simply to feel cared for, stella_blues; not to have your brain fried. I have a hunch brain-frying would be right off the agenda if only there were Someone to put their arms around you in bed each night... and if that ...
